Starbucks launches seasonal Halloween and Peanuts collections
Starbucks is expanding its seasonal offerings for the autumn and Halloween seasons. The company is introducing a Halloween-themed lineup in select US locations starting October 22, featuring the ‘Black Cat Frappuccino’—a chocolate cake-flavored crème Frappuccino with chocolate cat-ear toppings—and the ‘Black Night Cookie,’ a large black cocoa biscuit with caramel-fudge and white chocolate pieces. Additionally, a Halloween merchandise collection including themed mugs and tumblers is being released.
In a separate seasonal initiative, Starbucks has announced a global partnership with the Peanuts brand to celebrate the 60th anniversary of ‘It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.’ This collaboration includes collectible items such as Snoopy glass cups and stainless steel tumblers, alongside themed beverages like the Charlie Brown Frappuccino and Snoopy Frappuccino.
The broader fall menu for 2026 includes returning favorites like the Pumpkin Spice Latte and Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew, as well as new additions such as Iced Pumpkin Cream Shaken Espresso and various pecan and banana bread-inspired drinks. Consumers also have various options for recreating seasonal flavors at home using store-bought syrups or non-dairy alternatives.
